get the a5100. you'll get phase detect auto focus and xavc-s.
>>2680062
gear thread is trash, anon.
Get the A6000.

I got a deal on one, and it's fine though I'm sure the newer ones are better. I use it when I don't want to carry the 70D.
I mostly use a Canon FD 50mm 1.8 on it with an adapter.

Don't listen to this guy
Get the Sony A7II

depends on what you want.
faster autofocus, no evf hump, cheap, go with a6000.
>>2680300
Don't listen to this guy

Anyone know of any cheap deals for an A6000? Been looking for one for a while.
>>2680340
Check Ebay and Craigslist for used ones.
I wouldn't do that though.
>>2680300
Get a used/refurbished A7 I / A7R I instead.
>>2680221
which brand of adapter, and you mind sharing any shots with the lens?
>>2680732
FD lenses are manual so the adapters are 'dumb' and are really cheap.
>>2680340
Very few will sell their A6000 already, the successor isn't out yet and the camera has very few flaws.
Just buy a new one, it is pretty cheap anyways.
